OLBG gives away more than £1 million to tipsters

 

  • £1m prize mark passed on 1 May 2023
  • 76,953 prizes given away to tipsters
  • Most successful winners have taken home £9,115 each

Sports betting community and affiliate OLBG has now given away more than £1 million to users in its popular free-to-enter tipster competitions.

The contest, launched back in August 2003, offers players the chance to enter competitions across 22 sports.

Players win prizes based on their tips on sports including football, horse racing, baseball, basketball, boxing, cricket, darts, golf, greyhounds, handball, motor racing, American football, ice hockey, rugby, snooker, tennis and volleyball.

They can also offer tips on more niche markets such as eSports and politics, while the site has also recently added Gaelic sports, Aussie Rules and Lacrosse to the competition.

Each month OLBG gives away £7,100 in cash, with more than 800 individual prizes on offer. The largest prize fund is for football tips, with £2,100 given away each month, followed by horse racing at £1,600.

“Our tipster competitions have been fundamental in building our engaged sports betting community. Many of our members have been using OLBG on a daily basis for years,” said Richard Moffat, CEO at OLBG.

“Over 500,000 users have joined OLBG, with several thousand taking part in the competitions on a daily basis. This creates a huge amount of valuable content for those who like to follow tips and learn betting strategies.

“For some, it’s the challenge of proving themselves and winning prize money, others find it helps them with their own betting by recording their reasoning for each bet and being able to analyse their records. And for many, it’s a bit of free fun with the chance to win cash prizes.

“We believe that the OLBG tipster competitions are the most comprehensive free-to-enter contests available and the first ever to pass the £1 million milestone. We look forward to giving away even more cash to our loyal users in the future, they deserve every penny they receive.”

Some 10 members have won more than £5,000 each, with two members surpassing £9,000. Some of the top tipsters have also built up big followings, with one having more than 50,000 followers on the OLBG app.

As well as cash, OLBG members can accumulate OLBG crowns via their tipping and other community contributions. These can be exchanged in the OLBG store for merchandise, including the famous orange and black OLBG scarves.

ReferOn Wins Prestigious “Rising Star Provider of the Year” Category at the AffPapa Awards 2025

 

‍ReferOn, a state-of-the-art affiliate management system, has won the “Rising Star Provider of the Year” title at the 2025 AffPapa Awards — a milestone that recognises the platform’s bold innovation and rapid growth in the affiliate tech space.

This award reflects ReferOn’s ability to deliver fast, transparent and scalable affiliate solutions that answer key industry demands. The category highlights the best rising companies in the iGaming and affiliate marketing industries, celebrating innovation and problem-solving solutions.

The AffPapa Awards is an annual event that recognises greatness in iGaming. The ceremony  celebrates developments and innovations among affiliates, operators and B2B providers who have raised the bar and set new standards.

Vladyslav Bondarenko, ReferOn’s Head of Product, commented on the achievement, “ReferOn wasn’t built to impress, it was built to solve. From day one, we challenged how affiliate platforms should work, look and feel — because the existing ones simply didn’t. More than a win, this award highlights the value of asking the right questions and building with purpose.”

2025 has been a crucial year for ReferOn, with the company receiving widespread industry recognition and implementing core product developments. Heading into Q3 and Q4, ReferOn is preparing a range of new features and enhancements focused on elevating the user experience and streamlining affiliate operations. The team will travel to iGB Live in London this July ready to share what’s next, meet with partners and discuss how ReferOn is refining affiliate management.
